Short filmTranscript
00:00The lichen seer said I was born to be a true Luna, though the lichen king himself announced me his
00:05son's mate
00:06But on our bonding day my father's bastard daughter swapped the carriage and took my place
00:11I caught it stopped the ceremony had her dragged out and sold to the pleasure dens
00:16I entered the crown den just like I was supposed to
00:18Then on the day I went into labor the healer said the pup was breech both of us might not
00:24survive
00:24That's when kale walked in the lichen prince who had always given me everything. I wanted he walked in with
00:30her standing right beside him
00:41Alara if you hadn't lied about being born Luna, why would I have ever been forced to bond with you?
00:48Your mother is already in the warrior camps now. It's your turn to taste the feeling of losing everything
00:57Bella leaned close to my ear that Luna seat you wanted
01:02That man you wanted
01:04They can only ever be mine. I died right there
01:08Consumed by rage when I opened my eyes I was back back on the day of the bonding ceremony
01:14This time I decided to give them exactly what they wanted
01:18I am born under the moon's blessing, but the alpha throne there is no reason it has to be his
01:24The drums outside snapped me back white silk everywhere. I was reborn through the curtain. I heard my mother crying
01:31Alora once you pass through those gates. I can't protect you anymore
01:35Hold your temper never speak against kale
01:38I felt the ache hit me hard last time it was this exact moment
01:42I noticed something was wrong
01:44I walked off my carriage filed a complaint on the spot dragged Bella right back out of that carriage
01:49The lichen king wanted her executed
01:51My father had to kneel and use our ancestral honor seal just to keep her alive
01:56What I never knew was that kale had been secretly sending her money the whole time waiting for my weakest
02:01moment to destroy me
02:03Thinking about their faces still made me sick. This time I sat still
02:07I waited just as the carriage was about to move. I heard hooves. Then a voice I knew too well
02:13Stop my body went cold the second. I heard it that voice in my past life
02:17He used that same voice to whisper sweet things to me right before he threw me into the abyss
02:22Kale blocked the whole procession walked straight to the main carriage pulled Bella out himself
02:28How is this the bastard daughter?
02:31The lichen king chose the illegitimate daughter
02:33How was the carriage swapped? This is an act of deceiving the king!
02:37Kale didn't hear any of it. His eyes were only on her
02:39Thank the moon. We made it in time. Bella
02:42This time I will make you my mate. I swear it
02:46A cold shock ran through me. He was reborn too
02:49Bella was flustered, but she couldn't hide how smug she was
02:53My mother pushed through the crowd
02:55Why is it you? Where is my Alara? Where have you hidden her?
02:59Kale shoved her aside
03:03The lunar seat belongs to Bella alone
03:06I already told his majesty
03:08A wolf like Alara who spreads lies cannot enter the stronghold
03:13The argument outside kept getting louder. I lifted the curtain and stepped down
03:16My mother saw me in plain clothes. Everything that was supposed to be mine was draped on Bella
03:22She snapped at Bella immediately
03:25The alpha gave you permission to attend out of compassion and you had the nerve to steal the luma seat
03:34This was commanded by his majesty's own decree
03:38Do you want the whole blackwood pack buried with you?
03:40Bella and I love each other
03:42If Alara hadn't made up that born lunar trip
03:46She isn't even worthy of being in my presence
03:48His majesty knows everything now. The decree will be withdrawn
03:52I will never recognize this bonding
03:55Sister, I don't know why the carriage was changed
03:58But since this is Kale's wish, I dare not argue
04:03Alara be sensible
04:04Don't disgrace the blackwood pack
04:06I congratulate the Lyman prince on getting exactly what he desires
04:10He forgot something
04:11I didn't need him to be myself
04:13But whether he could hold that throne
04:16That was another matter entirely
04:18Kale looked surprised
04:20He snorted and walked away with Bella
04:22The crowd watched them go
04:24I stood alone in the road in my bonding robes
04:27My mother gripped my hand and turned on my father
04:30Edmund Blackwood, this is the bastard you insisted on keeping
04:33She had the nerve to scheme against Alara
04:37If you don't fix this, I want a separation
04:41My father said nothing
04:42Mother, don't be angry
04:44I chose not to bond with him
04:46Isn't it good to have me by your side forever?
04:53Yes, my daughter was born under the moon's blessing
04:56Go back to your room and have a rest
04:58Today you were wronged, but Kale already has his majesty's approval
05:01I can't help you
05:03You are always refined and sensible far more than Bella
05:06But the whole territory knows you were supposed to be bonded today
05:09If you stay home now, everyone will talk
05:11The blackwood pack will be the laughing stock of the territory
05:14I cut him off
05:15So father wants me to be that laughing stock?
05:18A legitimate daughter
05:19The king's chosen mate stolen by a bastard
05:22And now I'm supposed to step aside to cover it up?
05:26Before nightfall, I'd already be everyone's gossip
05:29Father, your real fear is I still want the lunar seat
05:33That I'll create a war between sisters
05:34And expose how you favored a low she-wolf
05:38Allowed a bastard to steal the legitimate daughter's bonding
05:41Ruined the blackwood alpha's reputation
05:43If I willingly bond with someone else, he could spin it as my own failure
05:48If you want me to bond, I will bond
05:51But I choose who?
05:54Otherwise, I bring everything before his majesty
05:57Every detail about the she-wolf you kept
06:00The bonding switch made against the Royal Reku
06:02Kale claimed the king approved the swap
06:05But they definitely did not tell the king that Bella was an illegitimate bastard
06:09With the royal bloodline's honor at stake, his majesty would be furious
06:14My father's eyes narrowed, he pulled his hand back
06:17It seems Alara already has someone in mind
06:20I didn't bother softening it
06:22Is there a lone wolf in the scholar's hall called Ash Mercer?
06:26I want him
06:27My father's face went dark immediately
06:29Out of the question!
06:30The blackwood pack's legitimate daughter, letting some penniless rogue caught her
06:34Even if he can read a few words, he will never set foot in this pack house
06:38I raised an eyebrow
06:39Didn't father just say I could choose?
06:42Now you change your mind the moment you look at his background
06:44Or maybe having one crown lunar isn't enough
06:47Maybe father still wants to trade me for more power
06:50And perhaps even
06:51I covered my mouth fast, put on a shocked look
06:54My father glanced around at the guests and rebuked me
06:57Enough!
06:58I watched him pace and found it laughable
07:00In his eyes, I was probably nothing like the obedient daughter he used to know
07:04Fine, since you want to bond, then let it be as you say
07:07He turned to leave
07:08I called after him
07:09One more thing
07:10My bonding gifts must be double what Bella received
07:13A legitimate daughter versus a bastard
07:15Is that too much?
07:17He gritted his teeth
07:18Granted
07:20I also want a separation document between you and mother
07:23If you won't give it, I'll bring mother before his majesty and let the king decide
07:28Ungrateful child!
07:29But I knew he had agreed
07:30In my past life and this one
07:32I must protect you
07:32He only ever cared about his face
07:34Even if they cannot see it
07:35I sent riders to find Ash Mercer immediately
07:38I have a task for you
07:38Told him to come in three days with bonding gifts
07:40I want you to find someone
07:41His reply came fast
07:42Every word shaking with nervous sincerity
07:44To be favored by the pack princess is Ash's great fortune
07:49I will prepare a hundred mile procession and see you bonded in splendor
07:53I laughed softly
07:54What I didn't expect
07:55Before Ash Mercer even arrived, Kale came back to the pack house with Bella
08:00A few days later, I was drinking tea with my mother in the main hall
08:05You see the Lycan prince and his luna and still you do not bow
08:09Are you waiting to be punished?
08:11Before I could respond, his attendant sees both of us
08:25Has the Lycan king's register recorded Bella's name?
08:29If not, and you're already calling her Crown Luna, you're flouting his majesty's own decree
08:35Why would I bow to a Lycan prince who ignores pack law and deceives his king?
08:42My lord, everyone knows sister has deep feelings for you
08:48Acting out of emotion is only natural
08:51Please don't harm your health
08:56Sister, all of this is my fault
08:59I couldn't control my feelings
09:01But I never meant to hurt you
09:04You have everything
09:06The finest wolves in the territory would line up for you
09:09I've had nothing from the beginning
09:11Even seeing our father once was nearly impossible
09:14I only reached for this one small warmth
09:18So knowing full well the royal decree couldn't be refused
09:21You secretly arranged your bonding behind the king's back
09:24Risk the entire Blackwood pack
09:27On the day of the ceremony
09:29All for your uncontrollable feelings
09:46To be continued
09:48Kale stared at the blood at my mouth
09:52I am the Lycan prince
09:54The future Lycan king
09:56Whatever luna I chooses to seat
09:58I will seat
10:00How many lives do you have to spend on defiance?
10:06Shameless creature!
10:08Ellara doesn't lower herself to argue with you
10:11What does it matter that you clawed your way onto a high branch?
10:15A sparrow can't become a true wolf no matter how high she flies
10:24You're looking to die
10:26Stop!
10:28Is this how the future Lycan king treats pack members?
10:31Taking lives without cause
10:33You can't even be sure you'll hold the alpha throne
10:36His majesty is still strong and healthy
10:39Coveting your father's seat this openly
10:42Are you planning a coup?
10:58He had someone bandage my hand
11:00Bella watched the whole thing
11:03Jealousy surged across her face
11:04She collapsed against Kale with tears in her eyes
11:07It's all my fault
11:09Please cast me out and give sister the lunar seat back
11:16What kind of nonsense is that?
11:19You are the only one I will ever claim as my mate
11:24Since they've made you this miserable
11:27Shall I have them thrown into the punishment den and flayed alive?
11:32It's too easy your anger
11:34I stared at him and the memories flooded back
11:36Last time I was near the end of my labor when he brought Bella to parade in front of my
11:41bedside
11:42To vent Bella's anger he had my mother bound and sent to the warrior camp
11:46Where she became a slave for any wolf to use as they pleased
11:53When I finally saw my mother again she was already a broken corpse
11:57Every bone shattered
12:00I died consumed by rage
12:02I couldn't even kill him with my own hands
12:05Being reborn I swore to myself I would never let my mother be harmed again
12:09Not even a fraction
12:12Bella was still crying beside us
12:14How could that be?
12:16The lady is the mistress of this house
12:19Who am I to give her orders?
12:22You are now the crown Luna
12:24You deserves this position
12:26This one who has already taken a separation is of no account
12:30Kale ignored her and commanded his attendants to seize my mother
12:38Kale!
12:39Wrongdoing should not extend to family
12:42If you have a quarrel bring it to me
12:47You think I dare not
12:49I'll grant your wish right now
13:02Want to save your mother?
13:04Kneel and slap yourself an apology to Bella
13:08I'll release her when she says she's satisfied
13:20I'll kneel
13:22Let go of my mother
13:31The slap and the apology
13:34A liar won short and your mother loses a finger
13:50I
13:51Stared at my mother collapsed unconscious on the floor
13:54My tears were already gone
13:56I couldn't even curse
13:57All I could do was keep striking my face to bloody red
14:00Biting my lip until it broke
14:03I beg the crown Luna's forgiveness
14:06I was blind and without sense
14:09Bella watched me in silence
14:12Oh my lord have them stop
14:15Sister's forehead is bleeding
14:16Has my Bella's anger eased yet?
14:19The triumph barely contained on her face
14:21Let sister rise
14:23After all, I still want sister to come into the stronghold and take care of me
14:27Kale laughed
14:29Fine
14:30Having shared blood as your personal attendant will mean better care
14:34I know you have yearned for me and couldn't have me
14:37Now I give you the chance to see me every day
14:40You should be thanking Bella for her generous heart
14:42Who would bond with someone selfish and with very little time left to live
14:48His face transformed instantly
14:52He raised his blade to run me through
14:54Bold words
14:55Let me see just how hard your spine really is
14:58From the entrance came one announcement
15:01The royal decree arrives
15:03Kale froze, released me, knelt with everyone else
15:07His face still venomous
15:09My heart dropped back into my chest
15:11I clung to the last thread of strength and knelt
15:13Elder Haze walked in
15:14The Lycan king's most trusted attendant
15:17By the will of his majesty the lion king
15:19Summon Kale, Illera and Bella to the royal stronghold at once
15:24Kale had no idea what this meant
15:25He looked at Elder Haze without respect
15:27Is that all?
15:29Did his majesty say nothing else?
15:31Or did you bungle the king's message?
15:33Shall I have your head removed?
15:35Elder Haze gave him a sideways glance
15:37Lion prince
15:38This servant dares not guess at his majesty's intent
15:42All will be known once you enter the stronghold
15:45Maybe the king wants to grant us the bonding in person
15:49He summons sister too
15:51His majesty is thorough
15:54He won't let us be wronged
15:55Kale's brow eased slightly
15:57He glanced back at me with contempt
16:00Are you not going to go change into something presentable?
16:03Appearing before the king covered in blood is a disgrace
16:06I pressed my wounded palm and started to turn away
16:10Elder Haze spoke up
16:12His majesty's intent is immediate departure
16:15If we are late are you prepared to answer for it?
16:18I slipped a silver coin into Elder Haze's palm
16:21Coaxed a warm smile from him
16:25This servant thanks the young lady
16:28I tidied my hair as best I could
16:31Kale boarded a separate one behind us
16:34I was still departing together with him after all
16:38How unlucky
16:39The carriage moved down the long avenue
16:41My palms still seeped blood soaking through my sleeve
16:45I thought about what Elder Haze just did for me
16:47And I began to understand what I needed to do
16:50In my past life
16:52Elder Haze was the Liking King's most capable attendant
16:55After Kale took the throne
16:57All because he dared to counsel openly
17:00Kale had his tongue cut out in front of the whole court
17:03Then beaten to death blow by blow
17:06By that time I was already a wandering primal spirit
17:11I watched him bleed out on the stones
17:14The sorrow I felt had no words
17:16I wrapped my wound with a clean cloth from my sleeve
17:19Called out through the curtain quietly
17:21Elder Haze
17:23What does the young lady require?
17:24You have served at his majesty's side for many years
17:28What do you know to be the one thing most forbidden within these walls?
17:31A servant who waits on others
17:33Who am I to speak freely of the stronghold's rules?
17:36Is the young lady testing me?
17:39You are a clever wolf and you should not remain buried
17:42I have only one question
17:44If someone sought to overturn the order of this stronghold one day
17:48Would you go with the current or hold to your own conscience?
17:53After a moment he dropped his voice lower
17:55This servant has known only one master in this life
17:58The one seated upon the alpha throne
18:00Should anyone harbor thoughts toward what is not theirs to have
18:04This servant will be the first to refuse them
18:07I understood completely
18:09With those words from you I am at ease
18:13Elder Haze said nothing more
18:14Just gave me one long meaningful look
18:19Move along
18:20Do not keep his majesty waiting
18:23The carriage is halted before the stronghold gate
18:26Elder Haze led us through the long passage toward the Lycan King's Hall
18:29The whole way there, Bella pressed close to Kale
18:32Kept flicking glances at me with a smirk she couldn't hide
18:36Kale strode like someone who had already won
18:39I laughed coldly inside
18:40Laugh while you still can
18:42In the hall, I knelt before the throne and paid my respects properly
18:46This subject, Allura Blackwood, greets his majesty
18:50May his majesty have 10,000 years of reign
18:54Your son greets his royal father
18:56May his majesty be well
18:58The Lycan prince is actually willing to call me royal father
19:03What an enormous honor
19:05The entire hall went dead silent
19:07Every person dropped to their knees
19:10Your son would never dare
19:13We beg his majesty to see clearly
19:15The Lycan king descended from the high seat
19:18Face dark as a storm
19:19Eyes bearing down on Kale like a death sentence
19:22You dare to issue false royal decrees in my name now?
19:26What is there left that you cannot do?
19:28Kale and Bella both went completely still
19:31Kale's mind went blank for a second
19:33His gaze snapped to me
19:34Your majesty, your son would never dare commit this crime
19:37It was her
19:39She withdrew from the bonding first
19:41She withdrew from the bonding first
19:42Deliberately pulled Bella forward to take the blame
19:44Your son didn't want to shame the royal name
19:47That's why it came to this
19:49Your majesty, I knows nothing
19:51I truly don't understand why sister would frame us like this
19:54Allura has been willful since childhood
19:58Abusing her status as the legitimate daughter
20:01Your son could not bring himself to bond with someone of that character
20:04If there is any fault, it rests entirely with your son
20:08It has nothing to do with Bella
20:10Listening to him twist everything, I felt nothing
20:13In my past life, he did the same
20:15Threw every drop of filth onto me
20:17Elevated Bella into an innocent, untouched soul
20:20This time, I was no longer the Allura who could be slaughtered as she lay
20:24I watched their desperate scrambling and let out a cold laugh
20:27Turned and spoke without flinching
20:29Your majesty, the one who ordered the bonding carriage swapped
20:32Was someone from the Lycan prince's own side
20:35She bribed the Blackwood pack steward
20:38Had the ceremony attendant conceal everything
20:40Stripped away every gift my mother prepared
20:43Worked with the Lycan prince to force the bonding through as a done deal
20:48I did not
20:50Your majesty, your son swears on his life
20:53Bella is kind-hearted by nature
20:55She could never do something like this
21:04By your account, every single one of them has grown bold enough to deceive me to my face
21:10The complaints spread across the floor
21:12Dense text covering the entire document
21:14Kale picked it up with shaking hands
21:16After only a few lines, his face turned a sickly mix of white and green
21:20I watched his fingers tremble
21:22Sweat breaking out on his brow
21:24Bella crumpled to the ground
21:26So shaken she forgot how to cry
21:28I was deeply satisfied inside
21:31But I showed nothing
21:32Just kept my gaze down on those ink-red words on the floor
21:35That was the pack steward's signed confession from the pack justice hall
21:38Every detail
21:39How he received Bella's payment
21:41How he bribed the ceremony attendant
21:44How the carriage was swapped
21:47The moment I was reborn
21:48I had him seized and delivered to the pack justice hall overnight
21:51Under hard interrogation
21:53What little backbone he had turned to dust
21:56My father had plenty of enemies in court
21:59Finding wolves willing to file the petition wasn't difficult
22:02But this wasn't even the most damning piece
22:04The truly fatal surprise I had hidden inside the petition
22:07Was a set of healing records from the pack healer's archive
22:10Documenting how the high consort before she ever carried a child
22:14Had suffered an injury that left her permanently unable to conceive
22:18His majesty had already verified those records
22:21There was no other explanation for the wave of murderous intent in his eyes
22:24Kale was still fighting
22:26Crawling on his knees
22:28Pressing his brow into the cold stone floor
22:30Your majesty this must be fabricated
22:34The pack steward was bought to drive a wedge between father and son
22:38He raised his head showing blood from the kneeling
22:41Your majesty your son was raised by your hand
22:44Named Lyon prince by your decree
22:47Has your son ever shown one moment of disloyalty?
22:51The Lycan king narrowed his eyes but said nothing
22:53Kale took that as an opening
22:56It must be Alara
22:58She acts out of scorned bitterness
23:01She's been plotting to destroy me from the beginning
23:04I watched them coldly and finally spoke
23:07The Lycan prince keeps saying I act out of scorned bitterness
23:09I dare to ask the Lyman prince one question
23:13On the day of our bonding ceremony
23:15Why did you take Bella and fled the territory in secret?
23:19Kale's face went rigid
23:20Your carriage that day was stocked with three months of rations and travel funds
23:26And border crossing papers
23:27If his majesty truly approved why would you not arrive with a full procession to claim your mate properly?
23:32Why flee in that frantic furtive way?
23:34He opened and closed his mouth
23:35You are making wild accusations
23:38This Lycan prince has never fled anywhere
23:40I gave a faint smile and drew a letter from my sleeve
23:43Please allow his majesty to review this
23:45It is correspondence between the Lycan prince and Bella
23:49It details how to swap the carriage
23:51How to proceed without permission
23:52How to use the deed already done to force his majesty's hand
23:56The Lycan prince's private seal appears at the close
23:59Elder Hayes received the letter and placed it before the royal seat
24:03Every trace of color drained from Kale's face
24:06In my past life I stumbled upon this letter in Kale's hidden compartment in my final dying moments
24:12I was powerless then
24:14Could only watch as he burned it to ash
24:16This life I moved before him
24:19On the second day after I was reborn
24:21I had a copy made of that key
24:23That letter was now resting quietly on the Lycan king's hand
24:27The Lycan king unfolded the paper and scanned it in one sweep
24:31Then he laughed
24:32Cold as something seeping up from the ground
24:36Every spine in the room went rigid
24:39Very good
24:40Very good indeed
24:41He folded the letter slowly and handed it to Elder Hayes
24:46A son I raised for 20 years
24:48And in the end he is another wolf's blood entirely
24:51Kale's whole body jolted
24:53He stared in stunned disbelief
24:55Your majesty
24:58What are you saying?
24:59Raise his hand toward Elder Hayes
25:01Bring that out
25:01Let him see
25:06His gaze traveled between the king and my face
25:09Finally fixed on me
25:10His eyes churning with disbelief and hatred
25:13Alara
25:15What have you done?
25:16I did not answer
25:16Elder Hayes returned
25:18Carrying a gilded wooden case
25:19Inside were yellowed medical records
25:21And a sealed blood kin test report
25:24Twenty-three years ago
25:25The high consort bitter over my neglect
25:27Gave in to her resentment
25:29While confined to the exile wing
25:31She took a guard as her secret lover
25:33And conceived an illegitimate pup
25:35Because her body had been damaged
25:36A miscarriage would have destroyed
25:38Her last chance at motherhood
25:39So she kept the pup hidden
25:41And gave birth in secret
25:43That illegitimate pup is you
25:47Kale
25:48Kale knelt on the floor
25:49No
25:51Impossible
25:52I am the Lycan prince
25:53I am the firstborn legitimate heir
25:56How could I possibly be?
25:57Your majesty
25:58There must be an error
26:02How could the lion prince not be?
26:04How could he possibly be?
26:05The Lycan king did not look at her at all
26:07Guards! Guards!
26:09Remove his Lylan prince's robes
26:12He is stripped of all rank
26:14Exiled to the borderlands
26:15Never permitted to return
26:17Since you have been so devoted to him
26:19Through all of this
26:19I will grant your wish
26:21You are to accompany him
26:23For the rest of your days
26:24No separation shall ever be permitted
26:28She opened her mouth to say something
26:30Then realized Kale was looking at her
26:32Those eyes cold as a vipers
26:34Her whole body shuddered
26:37It was all you
26:38If you hadn't pushed me to it
26:40If it weren't for you
26:42What are you saying?
26:43It was you who
26:44You ruined me!
26:46If not for you
26:47This rotten she-wolf
26:48I would never have come to this
26:50I should have been the king
26:51I should have been
26:52Bella clutched her throat
26:54Kale was restrained and still
26:57Fit either of them again
26:58Raised his hand
26:59And signaled the guards to drag them away
27:02Then Kale wrenched free of the guards
27:04And lunged straight at me
27:05Elara!
27:07I am going to kill you!
27:08His hands hadn't even grazed my clothes
27:10Before guards pinned him to the ground
27:12He struggled to raise his head
27:13You will definitely regret this
27:15That once handsome face
27:17Now a mask of savagery
27:18You will definitely regret this
27:21I looked at him
27:22And inside I was oddly calm
27:24My palms still throbbed
27:25He had stabbed it with a blade not long ago
27:27My abdomen still ached
27:28He had driven his boot into it not long ago
27:30But in my heart
27:31There was only the lightness of a burden
27:32Finally lifted
27:33He could never hurt me again
27:35Kale was dragged away
27:36Bella was escorted out after him
27:39Her echoed down the long passage
27:40And dissolved into the stronghold walls
27:42The hall held only me
27:44The lichen king
27:45And a handful of attendants
27:47He stood with his back to me
27:48That imperial gold figure
27:50Casting a long shadow across the stone floor
27:53After a silence
27:54He finally spoke
27:55Elara
27:57I knelt respectfully
27:59This subject is here
28:01He turned to face me
28:02Studied me for a long moment
28:05You are a clever child
28:06This subject would not dare
28:10This subject only could not bear to watch someone deceive his majesty
28:14Nor bear to see someone taint the royal bloodline with a false air
28:18The lichen king's eyes deepened
28:20His voice carried a thread of exhaustion that was almost imperceptible
28:24I was deceived
28:26For 23 years
28:28Looked in that moment like nothing more than an old wolf who had been lied to for half his days
28:33I did not speak
28:34Some things were not mine to say
28:36After a long while
28:37Take her to the side chamber to rest
28:39Have the healer come for her wounds
28:42He glanced at me once more
28:46I still have one matter to attend to
28:48You should be present
28:49I knew exactly what that matter was
28:51Elder Hayes led me out through a covered walkway and into the side chamber
28:54Simple and elegant
28:56A light drift of alpha musk incense curling from the burner
28:59Young lady please wait here
29:01This servant will fetch the healer
29:03Elder Hayes
29:06Thank you for speaking up just now
29:08Otherwise I might not have even had a chance to tidy myself before appearing before the king
29:14Drouched in blood
29:15He deflected twice but in the end accepted it
29:18Young lady is too kind
29:21This servant only followed the proper rules
29:23It amounted to nothing
29:25He hesitated then stepped closer
29:26Does the young lady know who else his majesty summoned today?
29:30The answer had already taken shape in my mind
29:33The young lady is of great buffing
29:36Those with great blessing naturally meet with great fortune
29:39I sat alone while servants cleaned my wounds and applied medicine
29:44It nearly severed a tendon
29:46It would likely leave a scar
29:49No matter, let it scar
29:51This scar would be the most precious mark of this life
29:55A reminder of the abyss I survived
29:57A reminder that I would never let anyone wound me like that again
30:01I would not want to get rid of some Entwickبحers
30:01For more information
30:01This shaving can be a cię-ffert
